Introduction
I've had an extensive background in music and music performance. I've taught guitar lessons in other countries as well as the U.S. I have a degree in music theory and performance and a two year certificate from the Guitar Institute of Technology, in Hollywood, California. I received a Barry Manilow Music Scholarship in 2016 for my musical creativity. I love expressing myself creatively through music, especially guitar playing. I love teaching my guitar skills to other guitar enthusiasts. It gives me great pleasure to share my musical knowledge to my students. My goal is to enlighten them with techniques that are easy and fun.
